Classification and species

Table 2 The taxonomic classification and species abundances of oxygenic photosynthetic organisms in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Note that terrestrial ecosystems are dominated by relatively few taxa that are species rich, while aquatic ecosystems contain many taxa but are relatively species poor.

Schmitt to Mayr, June 4 1946, Schmitt Papers, box 24, folder Mayr, Ernst, in which he explained to potential funders, For us systematists evolution has been, throughout, a guiding principle and basic to all our ideas of classification and species. That there may yet be a journal in which the dynamics of evolution and of species will be freely discussed, where pertinent observations and the results of special investigations can be brought together for all who are interested sounds almost too good to be true. ... 

The hydrides of the later main-group elements present few problems of classification and are best discussed during the detailed treatment of the individual elements. Many of these hydrides are covalent, molecular species, though association via H bonding sometimes occurs, as already noted (p. 53). Catenation flourishes in Group 14 and the complexities of the boron hydrides merit special attention (p. 151). The hydrides of aluminium, gallium, zinc (and beryllium) tend to be more extensively associated via M-H-M bonds, but their characterization and detailed structural elucidation has proved extremely difficult. 

What Do We Need to Know Already This chapter draws on many of the principles introduced in the preceding chapters. In particular, it makes use of the electron configurations of atoms and ions (Sections 1.13 and 2.1) and the classification of species as Lewis acids and bases (Section 10.2). Molecular orbital theory (Sections 3.8 through 3.12) plays an important role in Section 16.12. 

Probably the most notable feature of this receptor is the confusion arising from its classification and nomenclature Soon after characterisation of the 5-HTid receptor, which was found in certain species (e.g. the human) it was determined that this was in fact a variant of the 5-HTib receptor which had already been found in other species (e.g. the rat). These receptors were therefore regarded as species variants and came to be described as the 5-HTib/id subtype. Since then, another 5-HTi receptor subtype has been identified and current nomenclature dictates that this is the (new) 5-HTid receptor.

Broadly speaking the classification of meteorites follows the geological mineral classification and with 275 mineral species reported so far this quickly becomes complex some classes of meteorite have only one member. The mineral structure does convey essential information about the temperature at which the meteorite formed as well as the reduction-oxidation (redox) environment was the environment in which it formed rich in oxygen Meteorites have been classified into three broad classes ... 

The presence of pavines and isopavines has been used to provide assistance for taxonomic classifications, and to determine intergeneric and phylogenic relationships in the genera Papaver and Argemone. The results of extensive chemical research on Papaver species demonstrated that morphologically distinct sections are also chemically distinguishable by virtue of their alkaloidal profile (170). Out of nine well-defined sections of Papaver, the Section Scapiflora, which displays...

This background now allows us to more fully appreciate the uniqueness of Dalton s contribution, when, in the period 1803-1808, he shifted, for the first time, the focus of chemical atomism from the atomic parameters of shape and interparticle forces to a consideration of relative atomic weights, with a concomitant emphasis on characterizing the chemical composition of individual species rather than on the classification and rationalization of chemical reactions.

Many classifications of spectra exist those describing the spectral region involved (ultraviolet, infrared) the appearance of the spectra (line, band) the method of observation (absorption, emission) or the species producing the spectra (atoms, molecules). With respect to processes and properties of expls and proplnts, classification by species is most appropriate since information concerning reaction kinetics is frequently provided by spectroscopic techniques, From a spectroscopic viewpoint, it is convenient to divide the electromagnetic spectrum into a number of sections (see Fig 1).

The family of the Papaveraceae includes 31 genera and approximately 700 species (2). The alkaloids contained therein are derivatives of the 1-benzyltetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid reticuline (1). For the classification and chemical data of the described alkaloids (3-5) as well as for the pharmacodynamic properties of morphine and codeine (6, 7) see reviews. Some pharmacological aspects have been dealt with by Shamma (5) and Krueger et al. (8).
